The song Crying At The Discotheque would usually want a video recorded in - you guessed it - a disco or club, but I have been thinking so much recently about all my musician and crew friends who can't work at the moment, I thought a video where I film in as many empty London venues as possible would highlight all that's on hold at the moment.

I worked again with my favourite team for my videos, Sophie Muller, Robbie Ryan and Lisa Laudat, and we did all 7 venues in one day. It was strangely moving performing in those places to no crowd when I'd sang in them previously so full of life. I hope it brings home the gap in our culture at the moment. It's a scary time for so many people in my industry - please do head to https://www.wemakeevents.com/ to find out how you can support the events industry right now.

Heartfelt thanks to the venues that welcomed us in to film: St Moritz, Bush Hall, Omeara, Clapham Grand, Heaven, Apollo Theatre, The O2 Arena.
